Most of tourists from abroad, start arriving on Paros Island in April. This is the best time to visit Paros if you are nature enthusiasts. The weather is almost perfect; with temperature around 20 degrees Celsius and therefore you can enjoy trekking. There are several paths surrounded by nature which you can cross. Some people even attempt to swim in April. This is quite an experience because all beaches on Paros are not yet organized with sunbeds and umbrellas. Therefore, this is another thrill for nature lovers.  

In May, Paros Island is fully ready to welcome thousands of guests from around the world. The temperature is usually high and there is hardly a rain fall. May is a suitable season for exploring all the attractions of our island, using one of our cars. Paros is a popular destination for May, but there is less traffic than in full season. Therefore, driving is a delight. Additionally, hotels and villas are at lower price. Another important information is that you can enjoy the sea, because the weather allows it.
